TENACITY OF LIFE IN A PUP.

While running a poultry yard in
the suburbs of Philadelphia, and a
business in the city at the same time,
I had but little time for home work
before going to business. To my
great regret, alitter of mongrel Scotch
terrier pups came into the world,
which must be got rid of. Early in
the morning [ took the first one and
placed it in a pail of water with an
other weighted pail on top, and left it
until I was through feeding fowls and
pigeons, when it was apparently as
dead as a pup could be.
Not having much time, I dropped
it into a post hole where a fence had
been removed. The hole was filed by
a forcible use of the boot heel on the
sides of the hole, when I left for town
and spent the entire day there. On
my return home at night, and while
passing about the yard, [ several
times heard the cry of a pup, as I
supposed, and at last was attracted to
the buried pup by its cries. I secured
a spade and dug it out, just as lively
as it was before drowning.

WHAT MAKES

1t cannot be too often repeated that
luxuries, not necessities, bring poverty
and ruin. We are made bankrupts,
not by what we really need, but what
we think We want; therefore, never go
abroad in search Of wants-if they be
real ones they will come home ia search
of you; for he who buys what he does
not need, will soon want what he can
not buy.
